RE: https://mementomori.social/@rolle/115300412658446379

Probably because of this, I have a freaking frustrating issue on GNOME and GTK. My window buttons are on the right side again, and I can't seem to change that. For Electron apps and some others, they're on the left like they should be, but for Nautilus, GNOME Terminal, etc., they're on the right.

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout has no effect whatsoever, and neither do GNOME Tweaks or Refine. I've even tried editing the CSS directly at $HOME/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css since GNOME Terminal seems to obey it, but the buttons still won't change.

I've been bashing my head about this for a while. Any tips, my fellow Linux nerds?

Please note that I use Gnome (Pop Shell) with X11 again.

"This was solved on ubuntu forums. Turns out I had to log into Budgie, then use the desktop settings there to move the controls to the left...then logged back in to ubuntu and it's all fixed now."

It was exactly this with me as well! 😂 Solved.

@rolle I've heard there's an app on Flathub for fixing issues when having multiple desktop environments called Mending Wall. It might help.

https://flathub.org/en/apps/org.indii.mendingwall

Install Mending Wall on Linux | Flathub

Try another desktop environment
